Altough Russ has a great advantage, as those Speedlines look extremely close to ET49, causing no rubbing.
Fast what engine you have in your corsa? The bigger you go in wheels the slower you go on a small engine, take that into consideration, you may not think it but bigger alloys make alot of change to speed and handling. I running 15 inch wheels on a 60mm drop, did'nt effect the little 1.2 "too" bady but the handling is alot worse, plus having the wrong offset wheels contribute to this

i got 1.2 and i know 16s will slow me down but im not to bothered as its slow as fuck anyway lol. im definetly guna buy 16 inch wheels in 45 - 49 offset so theyl b lot less complications. i jus cnt decide wot style of wheels i shud go for.

The Speedline russ has are a perfect fit for lowering. I have'nt meet a person yet dose'nt agree that thoose speedline don't suit a nova/corsa, suppose they are like a legend on them.
